"passed to ima log" is unnecessary.

This comment, if needed, belongs in the text description area below,
not here.

Missing are the other fields.

Only IMA-appraise returns errors to the caller.  There's no point in
returning an error.

This should be "static void".

The cover letter and patch description say this patch set is limited
to measuring the boot command line - IMA-measurement.
 ima_audit_measurement() adds file hashes in the audit log, which can
be used for security analytics and/or forensics.  This is part of IMA-
audit.  The call to ima_audit_measurement() is inappropriate.
